Poetry
Divided into four seasons of romance – tenderness, passion, madness, longing – the poems in the wine tasted sweeter in the paper cups reflect passionate desire, quixotic idealism, and melancholic pathos in the great tradition of sensual love.
“In this convoluted, complex world, it is refreshing to find a writing that so simply speaks of human emotions and positive love, writing stripped of convoluted wordplay, yet filled with raw yearning and the closeness of humanity. “Your remedy writes these words” extols a yearning notdisguised and welcomes a new poetic voice.”
–Nick Samaras, poet
